Are you living your life the way you really want?

I’m generally weary of life “coaches” who promise to transform your life in a few hundred pages or an afternoon. This kind of stuff takes work, so I approached Michael Neill’s book Supercoach: 10 Secrets to Transform Anyone’s Life with the same skepticism.

However, I found this to be a highly useful reference book to read and reread.

If you’re feeling a little lost or stuck in terms of what direction to take or where you want to go with your business, this book is a great stepping stone.

Neill will help:

• Suck the negativity out of your thoughts and show you how to create positive energy in your life.

• Figure out what you want to create.

• Suggest ways in which you can make good decisions.

• Show you how to create systems to better manage your time.

• Teach you how to ask for something you really want or need.

Whether you think you need it or not, this book is a nice read that will help you get more out of business and life. I found useful tips for various aspects of my own life in nearly every chapter.

Now that you have these Supercoach tools, get started! Transforming your own life takes lots of work and it’s completely up to you…

The “Indiana Jones” of international finance.
-Forbes

Interested in how the global economy works?

Riches Among the Ruins: Adventures in the Dark Corners of the Global Economy gives a first-hand account of a real life “Indiana Jones” investing into the markets of the developing world.

Aspiring for a life beyond that of his successfully middle class Jewish parents, Robert P. Smith joins USAID right out of college to learn more about the world in which he lives. His first assignments take him to Vietnam during the war and then to Brazil, where he gets his first glimpse into the intricacies of emerging-market lending.

Returning to Boston, Smith is convinced there’s still more to life than settling into a cushy job in his father’s law firm so he embarks on a new career as an international debt trader. From dangers and blasts in 1980s El Salvador to risking his life after the recent war in Iraq, Smith will seemingly go to any length in search of a fortune.

While I’m not suggusting you go Robert P. Smith-Indiana Jones on us- please don’t- this is nevertheless, an interesting real life action novel with fascinating insight into developing markets around the world.

Entrepreneur Goddess Summary: Riches Among the Ruins by Robert P. Smith is a page-turning, just-for-fun business read.
